March/April Quilting Class

Spring Love
I've really led this class as a mystery class. Each new 'block' has been revealed just as we needed it.
When last the class looked, there was the centre and the Winged Flying Geese at the top, only. I've just added all of the other components minus the last bit of appliqué on the right side.
(Don't tell them about the yo-yo's just yet)
I've played with the idea of adding a little heart between our spring-love date-ers. You see; Betty-Sue and Robby-Sam are open to getting to know one another in this setting; that's why they are facing each other.
I'm quite pleased with the overall look of this wall hanging as it is progressing.

Quilters for Fond Farewell Quilts




Here are JoAnne, Debbie and Coby working on the Fond Farewell Quilts for Elgin Quilters' Guild.

JoAnne steadily quilted on the quilt in the frame. Later, Coby helped her there.

Coby helped arrange the blocks and Debbie helped find fabrics to use for posts and sashing.

We were able to construct two more quilt tops out of the blocks made by our guild members.

I will add the borders this week and we will be ready to quilt them together!!
